Diary 27.4.1883


Friday 27

Got up soon because the boxes had to be got up so we were all very jolly. Bartle’s (Bartle Hutton was Emily’s brother) box was a great surprise the two packets of cocoa came in at the right time we were much in want of some, and the maderia cake and plum quite set Emily up. All things considered it was a real good treat, there is a good wind today the distance run 230 miles. When we had done with our boxes I was very sick all afternoon went to bed very soon.
